The Daily Dispatch: October 26, 1861., [Electronic resource], By the Governor of Virginia.--a Proclamation. (search)
of the sunny land Where first they saw the light; The herces whose brave deeds shall make Their country's history; The martyrs whose baptismal blood Must set their country free; Then, is in strange such warriors have Their unremitting cares. Their smiles, their care, their hopes, their fears, Their labors and their prayers? Virginia mothers, sisters, wives, With love and pity moved, Behold in you comrades in arms Of their own best beloved. And think with reigning horror that Perc the same bright steel May taste the heart's best blood of both, Upon the same rad field; While in each buoyant youth we see Some heart sick mother's p e, And in the stalwart bearded man, The stay of wife or bride. Exiled by duty from your homes, Deprived of their fond cares, Our little kindnesses are given In answer to their prayers; Then, for the sake of your loved ones, Our simple offerings take, Which, for the sake of our beloved, So cheerfully we make. Hanover Co., Va., Oct. 15, 1861.
